The Louisville Palace
is a theatre in downtown Louisville, Kentucky located in the city's so-called theater district on the east side of Fourth Street between Broadway and Chestnut Street. This historic landmark opened in 1928 and was designed by architect John Eberson. It has a seating capacity of 2,700.
Elegant and ornate, The Palace
exhibits a Spanish Baroque motif with arcades, balconies and turrets. Cobalt blue, bursts of red and gold indirectly light all of the niches, coves and entrances. Above is a curved, vaulted ceiling with 139 sculptures of the faces of historical figures. The actual theater room inside The Palace
is heavily ornamented and displays an imitation nighttime sky on the ceiling.
The theater is two stories with a floor and a balcony. Both floors contain bars that run the width of the building behind the theater, separated by a grand lobby of intricate art and architecture.
Its uncommon appearance has made it a popular venue for musicians to record live performances (including Third Day and Alison Krauss).
Today, the theatre features an array of popular movies, old and new, as well as concerts by popular artists ranging from Jewel to Queensrÿche to Godsmack to the Jonas Brothers, most recently being Robert Plant and Alison Krauss on the opening dates of their Raising Sand tour, which began on April 19 and 20, 2008.
